You've used document.write to try to insert SVG content. I think that will only work in HTML. For SVG, you'll have to use DOM methods to do that.
There are a zillion SVG clocks out there, but here's the one I can find easily: http://srufaculty.sru.edu/david.dailey/svg/ballclock.svg You'll see how it retrieves the time and then sets the clock hands. One could just as easily write the time as a string into a text Node.
